White Bass Fishing in Kansas

Every year on most of the Kansas lakes that have white bass, they will turn on in September and October. The white bass move shallow to feed. It is a great time to take kids fishing. They can throw about almost any bait out and get hooked up. I prefer to have the boys throw Square Bills, Lipless Crankbaits and small spinnerbaits. If they are busting the surface, Topwater baits work great. We had a trip out about a week ago that we caught 23 white bass in 10 minutes, and ended catching 82 fish for the day. We could have caught more, but we decided to fish for smallmouth. You can always tell if you are going to catch the white bass when the birds are diving in the water for baitfish. Even Trey had has first double on a square bill. So, grab a rod and go fishing before the season is over. Good luck!!!
